03/09/2021, 9:05 PMOsquery now exposes more information during host enrollment than Fleet previously handled.^ which osquery version introduced this? What is the fleet behavior if I have old osquery versions connecting?

osquery_host_identifierinstancehostnamez

which osquery version introduced this?I'm not sure exactly but I think it's been quite some time.
What is the fleet behavior if I have old osquery versions connecting?Fleet uses the identifier osquery provided

if I set osquery_host_identifier to instance in fleet, even if osquery's flags specify hostname as the identifier, fleet will use a unique per-instance tag as the identifier?yes
